The Sabbath Series
“If you turn back your foot from the Sabbath,
from doing your pleasure on my holy day,
and call the Sabbath a delight
and the holy day of the Lord honorable;
if you honor it, not going your own ways,
or seeking your own pleasure, or talking idly;
then you shall take delight in the Lord,
and I will make you ride on the heights of the earth;
I will feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father,
for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.”Isaiah 58:13-14
Today many are deceived on the nature of the Sabbath, both on the side of legalism and also on the side of believing Christians no longer have to celebrate the Sabbath. In this comprehensive series we will do a deep dive into the history of the Sabbath beginning at creation, continuing through the Old Testament and up until Jesus’ time — as well as important history following the New Testament and into the modern era. Our goal will be to answer several key questions surrounding the Sabbath and its practice so that you can walk the narrow road between opposing errors.

Genesis “Day and Night” Graphics
Below are graphics that accompany Episode 4 on whether the Sabbath begins at sunset or at sunrise. I discuss these graphics in greater detail in that episode, but you can download them and use or share them for your own studies. The first graphic is the correct, chronological reading (sunrise reckoning) and the second is the incorrect, recapitulation reading (sunset reckoning).
CORRECT, Chronological Reading (Day Begins/Ends at Sunrise):
INORRECT, Recapitulation Reading (Day Begins/Ends at Sunset):
God’s True Calendar Graphic
In the 5th episode of the series I unpack an very complex topic, which is that of the system of time being changed (as per Daniel 7:25). This is the change from God’s natural clock and calendar to the pagan system of contrived months that we use today, as well as what we see through the “Lunar Sabbath” and evening to evening reckoning — both of which are false teachings.
These things are fascinating topics for discussion and I encourage you to watch the full episode for all the details. Below is a graphic of the true luni-solar-stellar clock calendar discussed in the episode. It is available for download in the Resources subfolder.
